LazyTown (2002)
Great show for energy-filled kids
This is one of the better shows NickJr. and Noggin has on the air.
There's always a great moral mixed in with the comedy. It shows toddlers and preschoolers the importance of friendship, cooperation, etc. And the use of Muppet type characters mixed with live actors just invites the kids to use their imaginations.
But, more importantly, it's full of music and dancing for kids to enjoy. My kids sing and dance along with Stephanie and Sportacus and even pretend to be the characters later in the day.
The best part is the way they not just tell but show kids how important good nutrition is. It's a basic part of the show that gets reinforced each week.
Murder 101: Murder 101 (2006)
Wonderful, just what you'd expect from Dick Van Dyke
If you enjoyed the TV Series, Diagnosis Murder, you'll love Murder 101. It's great to see Dick Van Dyke in a murder mystery again. If we're lucky, this one will be a start of a TV series or at least series of movies.
This movie definitely had some great and notable actors filling the roles. But, it didn't feel like a "face" movie. It was really a story that drew you in making you forget about the fame of those on the screen.
I made a guess as to the ending and was so pleasantly surprised at the end that I had to watch it again! This is a must see for any mystery buff or Dick Van Dyke lover!
